1 Chapter 6
Mac took a slow walk back to the B and B. She didn't want to go back yet but knew she had to. Why did Mic have to come and ruin everything? Mac thought to herself walking along the edge of the creek. Her and Harm were there to work. Mic being there just complicated things.
Walking in the dark, Mac didn't notice the handsome man sitting at the side of the creek, whom she tripped over and almost, fell into the creek.
'Sorry. I wasn't watching where I was going.' She quickly apologised, then realised who it was. 'Harm. What are you doing out here?'
'Sitting and thinking,' he replied as Mac sat down beside him. 'What are you doing?'
'Just come back from a workout. I'm really sorry about Mic.'
'Don't worry about it. You didn't know he would turn up.'
'Harm, why don't you like him?'
'This place is really beautiful at night,' he replied, looking across the creek and changing the subject.
'Don't change the subject,' Mac told him, hitting him in the arm. 'I want to know why.'
'Because he has you,' he whispered, looking at her.
'I found out from Jen what's going on between Joey, Dawson and Pacey,' Mac changed the subject this time.
'And I get in trouble for changing the subject,' Harm joked, smiling.
'I thought we already discussed this, that night in Sydney.'
'Well I realise now that I was wrong. I said things that night that I really regret. I don't even know why I said them,' he said standing. 'I've known what my feelings were since the day I met you. To begin with it was because you looked so much like Diane. But over the years it is all because of you. I don't know anyone else who would follow me to the end of the earth on my own personal quest, like you did. I will always appreciate that. And I think it's time I finally let go.'
Mac sat in shock. She'd been wanting to hear that for so long and now she didn't know what to say.
'Harm….'
'Sarah, love. Joey told me to come and get the two of you.' Mic interrupted, walking up to the two of them.
Harm turned and walked back into the B and B, leaving Mac alone with Brumby.
'Mic, why did you do that?' Mac demanded standing with her hands on her hips.
'Did what?' Mic asked puzzled.
'Interrupt Harm and I. We were in the middle of something important.'
'Couldn't have been that important. He walked off.'
'Only because you showed up.' Why was he doing this to them? There was no way Harm and Mac could repair their friendship with him around.
'Anyway, where have you been? I have been worried sick about you,' Mic said putting his hands on her shoulders, which she quickly shrugged off.
'Around.'
'Where?'
'It's none of your business,' she snapped.
'Yes it is! I'm your future husband!' he snapped back.
'Fine. If you really need to know, I was talking to Jen.'
'It's great that you make friends so easily, it means you won't miss Harm.'
'What? Why would I miss Harm?' she asked in shock.
'Well when we move back to Australia…..'
'Excuse me.' She interrupted.
'When we go back to Australia and get married, you'll need to make all new friends.'
'Who said anything about moving to Australia?' she said clenching her fists.
'I just assumed.'
'You know what they say about assumptions.' She said glaring at him.
Joey walked out the front door, 'Are you guys ready to come in?' she asked noticing the tension.
'Yeah, we're coming.' Mic said walking towards the B and B.
Mac followed behind him and slowed to talk to Joey.
'Sorry for interrupting,' Joey apologised.
'That's ok. You just saved the police the need to search for a body in the creek tomorrow,' Mac remarked.
'I'm not sure the Capeside police would appreciate my interruption. I'm sure they're looking for something to do other than visit the donut shop.'
'Can I talk to you later,' Mac laughed.
'Sure.'

Mac and Joey walked out to the dock and sat down.
'So what did you want to talk about?'
'I didn't mean to, but I overheard Pacey talking to you and Dawson this afternoon.'
'Oh and you want to know what it was about.'
'No, I already know. Jen told me.'
'Surprise, surprise,' Joey said, rolling her eyes.
'How did you know which one to choose? Your best friend or the other guy.'
'I'm not really sure I'm the one you should be talking to. I made the wrong choice. I was just lucky I realised before any more damage was done.'
'What made you realise you had made the wrong choice?'
'Because every time I see a daisy, I think of him. Because a movie isn't the same unless it's viewed on Movie night in his room. Because there's not a single significant moment in my life that he hasn't experienced with me. I realised I had followed my head and not my heart. Close your eyes.'
'Why?'
'Just do it.'
'Ok,' Mac said closing her eyes.
'Think of the person who owns your heart.'
Mac sat with her eyes closed and smiled.
'I'd say from the look on your face you've found your answer.'
Mac opened her eyes and turned to Joey. 'But have you?'
'We're working on it. I think you had better go talk to a certain someone.'
